May 1st Multifandom Promptfest (Commentfic Fest)

flowers and bees

I am running a prompt and commentfic fest for May Day, to celebrate spring and give us all a little bit of a boost. Obviously this is not limited just to May 1; you can feel free to keep posting prompts and fills as long as you like! Prompts can be on any subject.

Rules:

• Leave as many prompts as you like! There is no obligation to fill any. Anonymous is turned on for both prompts and fills. No minimum length. Crossposting to AO3 or other sites (or posting longer fills or linking them) is fine. You may also fill your own prompt.

• Use any format you like for prompts. The format used in [community profile] threesentenceficathon (fandom, character or pairing, prompt) is fine, but you can do it some other way if you like. (See examples of prompts and fills at the threesentenceficathon link; you may consider this a good example of how to do this fest.)

The standard AO3 warnings (Graphic Violence, Major Character Death, Noncon, Underage) are considered OPT-IN; please do not include them if they aren't requested. These should also be warned for in subject linest.

• If you like, you can include do-not-wants in prompts, or link to them elsewhere. (Not required.)

• All fandoms are welcome, as are "Any" prompts and original work prompts.

• RPF is allowed for people over 18, famous in their own right, and not famous for serial killings or 20th/21st century war crimes.

• Commenting on other people's prompts with encouragement or questions is welcome.

• I will not be tracking comments on this post, although I will be keeping an eye on it. Feel free to bring mod issues to my attention if you notice anything!

• I reserve the right to delete without explanation any prompt or comment deemed disruptive or against the spirit of the fest.

Please reply to the first comment if you would like to ask questions! And have fun!

I wrote a response! Though it deserved a better one with more wine-making and less noodling, frankly. I posted it on AO3 rather than in comment because it got a bit wordy.

TITLE: rarer gifts than gold
Gen, 5.7k.

Bertie sat, sipping cider from a pewter tankard, feeling it must be mid-afternoon at least, knowing it wasn’t even midday yet: the curious dislocation of being up before dawn. Gimlet was lying on one of the picnic blankets he had brought up from below, his head pillowed on his arms and his eyes closed.

“I say, don’t fall asleep,” said Bertie, reaching out one foot to prod his friend in the calf. “You were supposed to be earning your breakfast.”

“I don’t see you doing a great deal of picking,” Gimlet murmured, eyes still closed.


May Day, 1939: just before things change.
